Kennelly represents the world in AFL Tribute Match

Former County Kerry star and Sydney Swans premiership player Tadhg Kennelly has been named in the Dream Team in the one-off All-Star match against Victoria at the MCG in Melbourne on May 10 as part of the game's 150th celebrations.

Kennelly was the only non-Australian player to be named, and joins players from the Australian states and territories which make up the Dream Team:

South Australia (15)

Western Australia (12)

New South Wales (4)

Northern Territory (4)

Queensland (2)

Tasmania (1)

Australian Capital Territory (1)

Ireland (1)

Players from the Dream Team get to wear the shape of their state/country of origin on their jumper. It is fitting that Kennelly wear a symbol in the shape of Ireland on his white Dream Team jumper.

A large number of players from both sides will come from the 2007 Geelong Premiership team, as the Cats also dominated All-Australian selection last year.

Named players face AFL penalties if they don't play and the game looks likely to draw a 70,000 plus crowd. For many, this will be a once in a lifetime opportunity to see all of the best players in the AFL in action in a single match.

Mark Williams will coach the Dream Team and Mark Thompson the Big V. The 40-man squads will be trimmed to 25 by the match.
